Thinking my sensors are ferked

I just picked up this combo off of ebay & finally got to put it together yesterday.

My concern is with the CPU temp & the +5 V. How in the world could the MOBO temp be higher than the CPU temp? Just doesn't make sense to me. As far as the voltage goes, I think i'm going to have to invest in a multimeter & try to get more accurate readings with it.

It seems to be stable as it is now, but I'm going to eventually OC it as best I am able. I know the limitation of the chip, but I've got to get better RAM for sure.

Oh yeah, the PSU is a PowerTek 450W that worked just fine on my last build w/heavy OC'ing.

Please help!

I ran a report of AIDA32 & posted below.

well, maybe your getting 34 CPU and 15 Mobo (if that last one is even possible) and most sensor programs give me reversed readings (with the exception of ASUS Probe), telling me my CPU reading under motherboard, and my motherboard reading as CPU, simply go into the BIOS if you want a reliable reading, i've heard the BIOS is a 100% load process on the CPU, i'm probably wrong about that one though
